Traveler reviews
We had an absolutely...
We had an absolutely fantastic day on this Grand Canyon and Sedona tour, thanks largely to our guide, Mark L. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the region's geology, history, and Native American cultures, sharing fascinating facts throughout the drive that made the long journey fly by. His driving skills were exceptional, and he expertly navigated the scenic routes to maximize our time at every stop. Mark also knew all the best photo spots and ensured everyone in our small group felt comfortable and engaged. His professionalism and genuine passion for Arizona made this a truly memorable experience. Highly recommend requesting Mark L. for your tour!
Amazing Tour
Our guide was Elmar. We had a van of 10. The van was very comfortable with great air conditioning. Our guide was very knowledgeable of the area. He provided a lot of history and had a great sense of humor. He worked very hard to make sure we used our time wisely and that we got the most bang for our buck. By the end of the day we were more like a group of old friends. Would strongly recommend this trip.
Worth it
John was great and I had a blast seeing the Grand Canyon and Sedona.
Grand Canyon day.
This is a very long tour. 15hrs. Well worth it though. Spectacular scenery and quite a bit of culture regarding the native Indians.
Great way to see the...
Great way to see the Grand Canyon from the Phoenix metro area without having a car/worrying about the logistics. Guide was very attentive to us as individuals and as a group. Van could have been better - lacked charging stations and got hot in the sun.
